Als we in woorden voelen is a poetic virtual reality experience created by poet Micha Hamel and artist Damien Albers. In collaboration with Jos Blom studio johan nijhoff designed the spatial context for this installation.
Upon entering the room is brightly lit by two large led panels. A black line divides the space in two. After removing the glasses, the room is dark. Natural light seeps in through pierced holes forming a circle. The outside world penetrates the space as a counterpart of the closed off world of virtual poetry.
